(Answers are located in Appendix B) EXERCISE 17-2(Buck’s Step-by-Step Medical Coding, 2021 Edition) Pericardium, Cardiac Tumors, and Pacemakers Using the CPT and ICD-10-CM manuals, code the following:
1 Allen Jackson gets very tired walking up and down stairs. He has a hard time catching his breath and experiences instances when his heart feels as if it is beating fast. His physician has told him that he will require a pacemaker implantation. Allen goes to surgery and has a single-lead pacemaker implanted with a ventricular lead. CPT Code: _______ 33207 _____________ 2 Five days after the pacemaker is implanted, Allen (from Question 1) feels very dizzy and his electrocardiogram is showing some abnormalities. His physician returns him to the operating room and discovers that the pacemaker lead is malfunctioning. The pacemaker lead is replaced, and Allen recovers nicely. CPT Code: ______ 33216-78 ______________ 3 Five years later, the battery in Allen’s pacemaker is found to have become depleted. He is also having some other symptoms that his physician believes necessitate not only a replacement pacemaker, but also an upgrade to a dual-lead device. CPT Code: ____ 33214 ________________ 4 A new patient with a chief complaint of sharp, intermittent retrosternal pain that is reduced by sitting up or leaning forward is evaluated by a cardiologist. Chest films reveal acute pulmonary edema with acute pericardial effusion. The physician performs a pericardiocentesis. (Code the procedure and diagnoses.) CPT Code: _____ 33016 _______________ ICD-10-CM Codes: ________________, ____________________ 5 Resection of an endocardium primary malignant tumor in which cardiopulmonary bypass is required CPT Code: ______ 33120 ______________ ICD-10-CM Code: ________________ (Answers are located in Appendix B) EXERCISE 17-3(Buck’s Step-by-Step Medical Coding, 2021 Edition) EP, Event Recorder, and Valves Using the CPT and ICD-10-CM manuals, code the following: 1 Mary Black’s echocardiogram and cardiac catheterization show severe mitral stenosis with regurgitation. Her physician believes that because she is symptomatic, she should have her mitral valve replaced. The mitral valve replacement includes cardiopulmonary bypass.
CPT Code: ____ 33430 __________________ 2 Andrew Nelson has a loud heart murmur and, after study, is found to have severe aortic stenosis. He elects to have an aortic valve replacement. He is taken to the operating room and placed on a heart-lung machine. He then has his aortic valve replaced with a prosthetic valve. CPT Code: ____ 33405 __________________ 3 With the heart exposed through the sternum and the patient’s functions supported by a cardiopulmonary bypass, the right atrium is opened and the bigeminal arrhythmia foci are ablated by using electrical current. Bypass is discontinued and the atrium and sternum are closed in the usual fashion. CPT Code: _____ 33261 _________________ NO APARECE EN SECUENCIA EN EL LIBRO ICD-10-CM Code: __________________ 4 Insertion of permanent leadless pacemaker of the right ventricle with imaging guidance for a diagnosis of palpitations and dizziness. CPT Code: _____ 33274 _________________ ICD-10-CM Codes: __________________, __________________ (Answers are located in Appendix B) EXERCISE 17-4(Buck’s Step-by-Step Medical Coding, 2021 Edition) Coronary Artery Bypass Using the CPT and ICD-10-CM manuals, code the following: 1 Two coronary bypass grafts using veins only CPT Code: ___ 33511 _______________ The code for Question 1 came from the category Venous Grafting Only for Coronary Artery Bypass because the bypass was accomplished using a venous graft. If the bypass had been accomplished using an arterial graft, the codes in the category Arterial Grafting for Coronary Artery Bypass would be used to report the service. If both veins and arteries were used to accomplish the bypass, you would report the service by reporting an artery bypass code and a code from the category Combined Arterial-Venous Grafting for Coronary Bypass. Because the title of the category contains the words “arterial-venous,” you might think that the codes in the category report both the artery and the vein, but this is not the case. The category codes under “arterial-venous” are used only when a venous graft has been used in addition to an arterial graft, and these arterial-venous codes are used only in combination with the arterial graft codes (33533-33536).
